Grad Seminar: Florian Solzbacher
Electrical & Computer Engineering
The confluence of Artificial Intelligence and Brain Computer Interface: an inflection point enabling next generation multi-modal decoding of higher order intention
The talk will briefly review the last decade of advances and world first’s in Brain Computer Interfaces in human subjects, identify and discuss the core hardware and software challenges that limit widespread use and provide an outlook into a 30 year roadmap of where these technologies could go. The talk will discuss recent materials, hardware and software advances, e.g. in the building of foundational models for the brain including their interfaces to Vision Language Action Models VLAMs as e.g. used in advanced robotics and the enabling hardware and materials advances that power them.

Bench to Bedside: Reverse Pitch Night
Electrical & Computer Engineering
Reverse Pitch Night gives students the
opportunity to hear firsthand from healthcare
providers about the real-world pain points they
encounter in their day-to-day roles.
Whether you have a clinical problem you’re eager to solve,
are searching for a problem to tackle, hoping to find a team
to join, or interested in helping bring a product to market,
join us to make progress toward Comp Night and discover
new opportunities for innovation.
Join us to connect with clinicians, explore new ideas,
and find opportunities to get involved.

Civil Engineering Seminar - Distinguished Prof. Sharon Walker, "Fate and Transport: Lessons from Particles, People, and Institutions"
For two decades my research has asked a deceptively simple question: when bacteria and engineered nanoparticles move through natural and engineered water systems, what determines whether they travel, attach, or are removed — and what does that mean for water quality, public health, treatment design, and food safety? In this lecture I will trace what that work has taught me about the behavior of problematic particles in complex systems, then put the same question to the systems we build for ourselves: what makes a research career take hold, and what allows an institution to carry people further in their careers. Drawing on years as a research-active faculty member and as an engineering dean, I will offer a candid account of what I have learned about higher education's present strain and its possible futures.
Box lunch dinner following the seminar at 6pm - 7pm.
